Position Description

Do you enjoy taking ownership of construction projects from initial assessment and contractor selection through completion?

Are you equally comfortable managing budgets and paperwork, coordinating contractors, and working directly with families to keep projects moving forward?

In this role, you will manage housing rehabilitation and reconstruction projects from initial property assessment through construction completion and closeout. You'll serve as the primary point of coordination for each assigned project-conducting property inspections, developing scopes of work and cost estimates, soliciting and evaluating contractor bids, monitoring budgets and construction progress, maintaining required documentation, and completing project reports.

You'll also serve as a key liaison between contractors, participating families, local building departments, and internal teams, helping resolve issues and keep projects moving forward. This position combines hands-on construction knowledge with significant project administration and documentation, requiring someone who is equally comfortable visiting a construction site, reviewing a contractor's bid, communicating with a homeowner, and completing detailed reports at the office.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys owning a project from start to finish. The role combines construction expertise, contractor management, budgeting, homeowner communication, problem-solving, and detailed administrative work. You'll divide your time between project sites and the office, independently managing the many moving pieces required to take each project from assessment to successful completion.

Depending on skill, education, and experience, the selected candidate may be hired at the Project Manager 1, Project Manager 2, or Senior Project Manager level.
